Chapter III, section 10 of the income tax act deals with “INCOMES WHICH DO NOT FORM PART OF TOTAL INCOME”. This makes a distinction between ” income received in respect of the units of a Mutual Fund” and “income arising from the transfer of mutual fund units”
Income in respect of mutual fund units refers to dividend income. The quantum of such income is determined by the quantum of units held. Income from transfer of mutual fund units refers to redemptions and capital gains. #Budget2020
Insert a new section 194K to provide that any person responsible for paying to a resident any income in respect of units of a Mutual Fund specified under clause (23D) of section 10 or units from the administrator of the specified undertaking or (cont.)
units from the specified company shall at the time of credit of such income to the account of the payee or at the time of payment thereof by any mode, whichever is earlier, deduct income-tax there on at the rate of 10%. (cont..)
It may also be provided for threshold limit of Rs 5,000/- so that income below this amount does not suffer tax deduction.
Section Extract: (35) any income by way of — (a) income received in respect of the units of a Mutual Fund specified under clause (23D); or (b) income received in respect of units from the Administrator of the specified undertaking; or (cont..)
(c) income received in respect of units from the specified company:
Provided that this clause shall not apply to any income arising from transfer of units of the Administrator of the specified undertaking or of the specified company or of a mutual fund, as the case may be.
The law distinguishes income arising from the transfer of mutual fund units (capital gains) & income arising in respect of #mutualfund units (dividends). The finance bill has not amended or stated this by far.

Recent circular issued by @SEBI_India issued to @amfiindia & directed the AMCs & MFDs to comply. Being a MFD we all surely will. It further states that we cannot print/ post/ type future returns based on assumptions & projections for which disclaimer was being used (1/n)
Not challenging the decision made but what if the #investor asks that how much is expected returns - What should we say kindly enlighten the MFDs? In case of stocks upsides are always projected by way of Target & this must stop as its misleading. (2/n) @MFSahiHai
Those who distribute #mutualfunds & promote it by misusing the code of conduct in any way stern action is always taken & should always be taken. Professionally we are perfectly in favor of it. Rules & regulations must be abided. (3/n)
To do any kind of modification in KYC records, there is no digital process as on today. Investor or MFD has to do the needful via physical application only. Would request @amfiindia @MFBALA@SEBI_India to make this process digital in the interest of #investors (1/n) @MFSahiHai
- Propose that Video KYC can be like the Banks are doing while applying for Credit Cards or Loans. Dedicated executives can assist #investors for RIs/ NRIs. IPV would be more real-time.
- Propose that Aadhaar Based KYC Validation be made quicker by virtue of OTP @amfiindia (2/n)
- Propose a dedicated link that can be provided to MFDs to ease the load on KRAs by Aadhaar based OTP Validation in order to save the transaction time.
- Propose that a common pool be created among all KRAs so that data can be fetched on real-time basis. @amfiindia (3/n)
#Investors should avoid knee-jerk reaction as the investigation is still underway & @AxisMutualFund has already sacked the concerned officials from their responsibilities.
Extent of notional losses that may have occurred to the #investors in these schemes can only be estimated after the probe. Investors may have to wait for further action, disclosures & announcements from the fund house & the regulator around this matter.(2/n) #axismutualfund
Unfortunately @AxisMutualFund is witnessing knee-jerk reaction of #investors via redemptions or stoppage of SIPs/ STPs. Focus of facts not rumors about the management. Such rumors have been there from past 2 years for @FTIIndia as well. (3/n)
A #finance professional must sell products which have strong foundation not because of high returns. Though on high return & risk basis #crypto can be considered may be 2% to 5% money of #portfolio which one is fine to take the chance or gamble. (1/n) #cryptocurrency#CryptoNews
#Crypto is, was & will always be 'A Zero Foundation Product'
If one is so bullish on #Crypto, one can recommend his or her clients to a greater extent instead of preaching a lot on crypto. Too much of crypto debate is not right as in our country its neither legal or illegal as on today. (3/n) @cafemutual@kaul_vivek@latha_venkatesh
Oaktree roots grow from an acorn to a taproot system, similary #wealth is created via #MutualFunds. Primary root would grow horizontally into the soil. Later on, would transform into an extensive root system alongside maturation of the plant i.e. Magic of Compounding (2/n)
Only 1 in 10,000 acorns grow up to be an oak tree, and the same is true for #mutualfund#investors - only 1 out of many stay put to see the magic of compounding. One of such living legend is @Raamdeo (Mr. Raamdeo Agarwal - Chairman & Co-Founder @MotilalOswalLtd) 👇 (3/n)
